Habitable Zones in Extrasolar Planetary Systems [PDF]
If we ask the question about the possible existence of the life outside the Earth, we first have to determine the habitable zone (HZ) for our solar system. The HZ of distances between a main sequence star and an Earth-like planet is roughly defined as the range of mean orbital radii which imply moderate planetary surface temperatures suitable for the ...

Embedded Interactions and Selective Disclosure: Network Effects on Conversations aboard Skylab
How do absent others influence our interactions? We argue in this paper that interactions are embedded within networks formed by chains of specific relationships between known third parties. The anticipation of future interactions with external others conditions our interpretation of the current situation and affects our behavior in the interaction. We

Biodiversity–food trade‐offs when agricultural land is spared from production
Abstract Biodiversity conservation in agricultural landscapes, the world's predominant land use, could involve sparing, or setting aside, agricultural land from production, implying biodiversity–food trade‐offs. Employing bird species and agricultural data in two panel data sets, we evaluate the extent of set‐aside's trade‐offs in England between 1992 ...

A 3200‐year weathering record of the Mekong River basin by sediments from the South China Sea
The Mekong River is a mega‐river in East and Southeast Asia, and precipitation in its watershed influences more than 300 million people. However, the controlling factor in precipitation and weathering in the basin remains controversial. Here we present a high‐resolution record of weathering of the Mekong River basin over the past 3200 years by ...

Abstract Since 2007, the European Union has devoted significant time and energy to the production and dissemination of new statistics designed to monitor social and environmental trends of various types. These initiatives have often been presented as part of a broader ‘beyond GDP agenda’, which challenges the centrality of economic growth, as measured ...

Abstract In this Counterpoint, we argue for the importance of social movements in responding to the climate crisis by challenging the taken‐for‐granted practices and policies of corporate capitalism. These challenges politicize what is seen as ‘common sense’ and show that there are alternatives to the dominant social order of fossil‐fuelled economic ...

Identification and characterization of a new ensemble of cometary organic molecules
A new analysis of Rosetta mass spectra reveals an ensemble of complex organic molecules with striking similarities to other organic reservoirs in the Solar System, including Saturn’s ring rain material, pointing at a likely joint prestellar history.

Abstract Dating rocks with a 2σ precision of 200 Ma is required to understand the history of Martian habitability and volcanic activity since ~4000 Ma. In situ K‐Ar dating using a spot‐by‐spot laser ablation technique has been developed for isochron dating on Mars.
